5.0 out of 5 stars ALL the things you can do to boost your odds., April 22, 2003

This review is from: Natural Solutions to Infertility: How to Increase Your Chances of Conceiving and Preventing Miscarriage (Paperback)

My husband and I are just beginning to explore the reasons we're having trouble conceiving, and before going to our doctors, I wanted to make sure that we were giving ourselves the best possible odds. This book is great at summarizing the many things affecting fertility that are in our control right now, and since reading this book, we've changed our diet, started taking supplements and herbs, and begun acupuncture. But the book also covers traditional medical treatments; it just doesn't assume that they're a first step. The book is pretty short, which is good, but I would have liked more detail about particular herbs. Also, it's written with British terms, which is only a problem if you don't know that linseed oil and flax seed oil are the same thing (I spent a lot of time looking for "linseed oil," which is the British name). There are also some suggestions that we're not up to ("don't store food in plastic"; "eat only organic food"), but that's our fault, not the book's.

I highly recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Could also be titled, "Increase odds of a successful ART (IUI, IVF, etc.) treatment!", December 7, 2010

This book is amazing. After two failed IVF attempts, I got and read this book per a suggestion from someone who had repeated miscarriages and IVF failures. She went through Marilyn Glenville's food and vitamin regimen, and went on to have a healthy baby boy. A few years later? Another healthy baby boy.

So I did the "Marilyn" regimen starting three months before the IVF cycle. And I also found success - healthy baby boy! Then two years later, did the same thing, found success - a healthy baby girl!"

I do believe that the vitamins and organic eating made a world of difference.
